Bows & Bangles Lyrics - Chris Rea

Born and raised in wilderness 

Of suburban shops and schools 

How she tried and tried to be satisfied 

With a job on the typing pool 

She hated the smell of carbon paper 

The office so smoky and dry 

How she longed for the day she would make her get away 

And say her last goodbye 

Bows and bangles on her fingers 

And silver bells on her toes 

That lady has music where she wonders 

That lady has music where she goes

The 5 Most Memorable Moments From The 2017 VMAs 

Married a guy with prospects 

And so became his wife 

And that my friend is the end of the story 

'Cause that was the rest of his life 

She could have been a movie star 

She could have made the scene 

Right or wrong she still hangs on 

Each night to her favourite dream 

Photos 

Bows and bangles on her fingers 

And silver bells on her toes 

That lady has music where she wonders 

That lady has music where she goes
